Yes: ta-da!
In addition: you should have a look at the html-validator every now and 
then:
http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fhhp.umd.edu%2Fevents%2Fsystems_thinking%2F
 
<http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fhhp.umd.edu%2Fevents%2Fsystems_thinking%2F>
and the css-validator as well:
http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?profile=css2&warning=2&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fhhp.umd.edu%2Fevents%2Fsystems_thinking%2F
 
<http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?profile=css2&warning=2&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fhhp.umd.edu%2Fevents%2Fsystems_thinking%2F>

And maybe telling no news:
For the accessibility, it will be easier to check that from the 
beginning, for instance with WatchfireWebXACT:
http://webxact.watchfire.com/
Adapting the page/design for accessibility after everything is done, can 
be a lot more difficult (if that needs changing lay out / other primary 
conditions for the design).
- As the page is now, the font-size is fixed in px - then IE-visitors 
cannot enlarge (!) if they need that. And the font-size is very small > 
too small! Especially for resolutions > 1024x768. A font-size of 90% to 
100% in the body-css should be the minimum...

Hoping the last remarks are not too much off topic [1],

[1] All beautiful css is useless when the visitors can not read the text!
