The Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR) Seven Seals Award was presented to South Dakota Mines. The ESGR Seven Seals Award is presented to an individual or organization that has made significant contribution towards the ESGR mission. ESGR is a Department of Defense volunteer agency that seeks to promote a culture in which all American employers support and value the military service of their employees. ESGR recognizes outstanding support, increases awareness of the law, and resolves conflicts through informal mediation. This is the first time this award has been given to an organization.
