Leave It to Beaver

Film & TelevisionSitcom
  • Season 3, Episode 32 “Beaver and Violet” [May 7, 1960]
  • Season 6, Episode 15 “The Mustache” [Jan. 3, 1963]

Sitcoms are a major component of the collection, and most of the major early ones, like Leave it to Beaver, got around to talking about Vassar at some point. The scenes are drawn from two different episodes—and we get two different tropes: one about men attending, and one about how the girls who attend are too intelligent/forceful/demonstrative.
