Layout for organization website

Hey guys…

New here, and it’s been a looong time since I’ve done any serious web work. I was kicking around some ideas in my head for a new layout for an organization’s website that needs severe updating, and came up with this in about an hour (woke up and had nothing to do before class…):

Please offer any comments or suggestions you might have. The right side area will be reserved for announcements and other misc. items (all with a uniform width, hopefully), so if it looks a little empty… well, that’s why.

Thanks in advance for your time and critiques.
