We are using C in my Computer Systems class right now, I think maybe it's a little easier to do bit manipulation in C instead of C++

C is also an easier language to learn. As I recall, most of Linux and Xwindows are written in C.

FIRST robotics uses a C controller to control the PWM outputs, as well as sensor inputs, also via PWM.

So it's not so dead. I thought C++ was better though, and those two pluses make it sound better.

C++ has more features than C, but that doesn't mean it's more powerful or always the best choice. As I recall, most of Linux is programmed in C, not C++.
