Oh, we use the little desks still. Most classrooms have the table Scarlet mentioned. Students with mobility issues use them, overweight students, left handed students (desks are almost all right handed).
Newer classrooms are all tables now, but most universities don’t have the money to rip out old seats and replace them en masse. (Though they might if they didn’t spend so much on university administrator salaries or new student amenities.
