A few years into it, and it seems to not hurt as much. Even here in Ohio, which has been hit pretty hard, we're seeing record recruitment numbers at a whole lot of schools.
Ex: Quota at my alma mater has been steadily climbling. In the time that I was there (like 2004-2006ish), it never got higher than like high teens-low 20s. This past year, it was in the 40s.

I think the economy has helped smaller, state schools grow. Students who would normally apply for the larger flagship or private schools are going to the smaller state schools (I know KSU is not small). Many of these student would have went Greek at the flagship schools, so that might be a factor, too.
