The lead character of the HBO Max show about the first erotic magazine aimed at women in the 1970s is a graduate. In the second season, she travels to Vassar to accept an award and ask her former professor to write the foreword for her book, and the entire plotline is very Vassar-centric; dorms are mentioned, the Night Owls appear (and sing! and since this is set in early 70s, let’s agree to assume one of them is Meryl Streep), and much else that rings true for the sexually liberated 70s. It wasn’t shot at Vassar (though there is a stock establishing shot) but this is lots of fun. The full 2nd-season plotline is here in the second video.
