Iowa State University in Ames had some serious flooding right around campus (where many of the Greek chapters are located) last year right before recruitment started. Some houses had water damage in the basement (mostly minor, IIRC, but almost all the basements are used in some capacity with either dining, lounge or study areas so living areas were affected), the city was on water conservation rules during work week, I think even some of the dorms had issues with water damage that affected how/where the PNMs going through ate their meals.
By the time recruitment actually rolled around, the city was back on normal water use, the houses had [mostly] cleaned the issues up and, as far as I know, none were adversely affected with lower numbers because of any damage sustained by the flooding.
