I personally wouldn't use validation as a reason to redo the pages - I'm not 
sure who you will be directing your communications to but from what I have 
experienced (I work in a university as well) they won't really get the whole 
validation thing and will think its just techno babble - which really it sort 
of is!

The angle I took was more from a quality viewpoint - you are a University, want 
to show to your potential students that your teaching standards are excellent 
and for this your marketing materials should reflect this. Websites are now 
probably a Universities biggest marketting tool so you need to have a good one! 
 You can then go about the benefits of having well ordered pages for all the 
accessibility, usability and portability reasons - I am sure they will 
understand and go for it!

Really this is just common sense stuff but unfortunatly its what works - techie 
speak is great but not if your talking to non-techies!

Good luck,
