The Betty Allen Dillon Award is given to Westhampton student(s) who embody the spirit of Westhampton, taking equal pride in both tradition and progress. In word and action, these students work to promote the core values of the college in the contemporary world, staying true to our mission to help students become the best versions of themselves as they lead informed, purposeful lives.

This award honors Betty Ann Allen Dillon, a distinguished graduate of the University of Richmond, who completed her bachelor's and master's degrees in sociology and psychology in 1949. Notably, she began her studies in 1945-46, which was the last year of the tenure of the first dean of Westhampton College, Dr. May Lansfield Keller. Betty Ann has been a steadfast volunteer for the University of Richmond in countless roles since graduation, so that she has known and worked with every dean in Westhampton's history. Betty Ann has had a long and impressive career as a licensed psychologist and human resources consultant, and was a member of the University's Board of Trustees, having received the Trustees' Distinguished Service Award in 1983.
