Actually (at least here in Colorado, and I suspect elsewhere),
enrollments at colleges and universities are up. Many of the recently
unemployed are using the opportunity (and the fairly generous extended
unemployment benefits) to go back to school, either to prepare for a
career change or just to make themselves more marketable. 

I saw a story about this on the news not long ago. Higher education is
apparently something of a counter-cyclical industry.
