This three-sided, 52 feet tall clock tower is located near the center of Colby Community College, which is at the northwest corner of Kansas, near the Colorado border. The clock tower is in a grassy area of campus, southeast of the Atlas sculpture. The college was established in 1964 and has approximately 2,000 students.
From the CCC Endowment History link:
"Then on October 15, 1993, Colby Community College dedicated the Beatrice Davis Clock Tower, which serves as a memorial to one of the College’s finest supporters. This campus landmark is a gift from Charles Davis as a memorial to his mother. The three-sided Kansas limestone and granite structure stands 52 and one-half feet high, overlooking the entire campus. Each side of the tower features an illuminated clock face."
