Hi Kathryn,
Welcome to the club!
As Firefox is rather standards compliant (IE is not), Firefox is 
suffering more if non-standard and/or non-valid html is used. Before 
all, I should get the html-errors out.
The tips are indicated in the html-validator 
<http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fadmin.berkeley.edu%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&ss=1&verbose=1>.
It seems it is more Html4.01 Transitional than Xhtml1.0 Transitional: 26 
errors less to solve. ;-)
See validator with overruled doctype 
<http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fadmin.berkeley.edu%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=HTML+4.01+Transitional&ss=1&verbose=1#line-129>.
After that, we better can see & solve what are the (remaining) problems.

Greetings,
francky
