I would’ve appreciated a little more desk space for note-taking back during my university days. Of course, that was when laptop computers were a rarity and their battery life left much to be desired.
These days, I do my note-taking with an iPad and a camera or iPhone (to take pictures of any slides or diagrams), and they don’t require so much room. Whenever I’ve presented to university/college students, most of them appear to be doing the same.

Job interview test.
The (newer) computer science lecture halls at UBC have long continuous tables that span the entire row. And enough electrical outlets for everyone to plug in a laptop and hairdryer. Hopefully it will catch on.
