I don't fully understand this, but this towerbells.org website considers that a non-traditional carillon. It sounds like they have limited musical expression. It does have bells so it isn't electronic.
Does the university have a person that plays the carillon at times? CLemson has a woman who plays various songs, including pop songs like Call Me Maybe, 3 times a week.
Denny Chimes has a non-traditional carillon too and it appears it can't be played. All the chimes result from automatic controls.

I don't know. I just know it was built after I left and I never fully understood why we needed a bell tower. Some alumni just wanted their name plastered on the tallest thing on campus, I suppose.

I'm not sure what you mean here. Denny Chimes can be played. There is an organ inside that is played manually on certain occasions.
