* AdaptationDisplacement: Iowa State University no longer has a copy of the un-riffed version of the short, so some of their history classes have taken to showing the [=MST3K=] riff when covering the 50's. It should be noted that there is a copy of the full, non-MST3K version of the short on Website/YouTube (and has been for over a decade).

* FairForItsDay: The short is a borderline case. The late 40s and early 50s were a time when women were being aggressively pushed to go back into the home and forget about work, so in a sense encouraging girls to go to college, even if the purpose was to study home economics, was progressive; by the same token the short aggressively pushing the storyline that a job was only something for a girl to have until she could find a man was perfectly in keeping with the social pressures of the day.
