This kind of thing becomes huge competition for Greek housing. In addition, many colleges are upgrading their dorms -- more single rooms, internet access, cable, etc.

Makes it hard to compete.

When daughter #1 was at Ohio University, we bought her a very nice little studio apartment condo about a half mile from campus. It included free bus service to campus and "uptown" along with workout room, pool, free parking and it was fully furnished and accessorized. We rented it out (Medical students loved it) for a few years after she graduated and the net effect was the she lived in it for free.

Tough to justify spending a lot of money on a chapter house with this kind of stuff available.
