The Office of Dean of Women was created at a select number of established universities in the early 1900s to ensure that, outside the classroom, experiences of female students complimented their overall academic success.
Amos was Dean of Women from 1919 to 1941.

The original office for the Dean of Women and other women's organizations was in Heinz House, a one-story wooden building north of Alumni Hall (now known as Eberly Hall) that was built in 1919.
In 1924, Heinz House was closed, and all offices were moved to the Cathedral of Learning.
