Default Need a good review of College Team Site

Just surpassed our 18 month of being live. We have come a VERY long way from day 1 till now.
Looking for some good feedback on the site and ideas where to take it from here.

A real quick first impression...your logo needs more work. The site name in it looks blurry and the small text under has artifacts.

Also the homepage, I think it needs some background shading/coloring to separate the blocks from each other visually. I came across this site the other day which has a nice subtle background effect to separate the main sections on the page....something like that light crosshatch design (maybe in a light hurricane green or orange) would look nice around your side column. I think you need more left margin on the right side column as well.

Your "remember me" button has a header line going through it (at least on my machine)...chrome/OSX.

1. there's a popup trying to open. It's annoying, try doing without it.
2. have a fixed layout or let it not spread over 1000 pixels. It's now at 1600 (my screen res) and looks jumbled. Not to mention the text is so wide that it's hard to read)
3. the logo needs more work. It's not clear and crisp and some of the gradients are not discreet enough.
Should have some sort of boxes in the home page and make sure elements have the same width, some are wider, some are narrow (especially the right side).

Otherwise it's a clean design and easy to remember, so its' not a 'stock' one.
