The article doesn't mention population changes either.
A significant part of the recent downward trend could be because there are fewer college age people in the population. Just eyeballing it looks like fewer 18 year olds every year for the last 15 to 30 years? [1]
A more interesting statistic might be students per capita within the college age bracket.
