While many colleges have a uniform design across their buildings, service academies add to that with a student body outfitted in strictly enforced uniforms as well. At the Air Force Academy, the mid-century master plan for the school, managed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, brought the beauty of modern design into the institution. The Cadet Chapel is one standout example: The angular, pointed, religious building was contested at first, but is now considered one of the centerpieces of the campus and was designated a National Landmark in 2004.
