As of May 1920, $ 7,000 had been pledged by college alumni toward the memorial fund, along with less than $ 6,000 in cash donations. William Henry Deacy of the W. W. Leland Studios in New York City was subsequently chosen as the architect. At the annual meeting of the Alumni Association following commencement in May, two of his proposed designs were presented for consideration, "Design A," an 85-foot-tall (26 m) stone and brick adaptation of a colonial church spire, and "Design B," a 115-foot-tall (35 m) tower in "semi-Romanesque style with Gothic treatment of the vertical lines...it is military in character and recalls very strongly the beautiful towers at West Point."

State College Alumni Association of New York...suggest as a suitable memorial a clock tower permanently placed, thus obviating the blowing of the 'whistle' on the campus, the clock to have a good loud striking bell and chimes, if the expense is not too great."
