Have to bring politics into the mix: the factor of current, lowered foreign student enrollment, especially at schools where it had become a common annual thing for many years, could be affecting recruitment at that limited number of campuses.
In the past ten years here, more students are choosing to attend Big Southern Schools. The schools I note most of our area's students attend are enjoying record breaking large recruitment numbers: South Carolina, Kentucky, Ole Miss, Alabama.
Our nearby Big In-State Schools have lost much local population and have experienced lowering recruitment numbers, too.

I’d say it’s a mix of that and social media. Online watching bama rush people see the big houses, the massive game days, all that and they want it. The small liberal arts college could have a great greek system but doesn’t have all the flash and “fun” of these huge schools, which could be affecting student’s decisions on where to attend.
