You kind of missed the point of the discussion, OP Nows its inappropriate, but is looking for a way to tell the student nicely.

Here is my idea as a mentor:

If you have a website team that is willing to sit down and teach the kid a bit, that might be the best solution. Just say "Hey, this isn't exactly what we were looking for, but i got soandso here who wants to help you create a better team website." Then Sit down with them all and hash out some ideas for a new website page, or some new information for your primary site.

Not only does this show the student where he can improve at, it teaches him some skills, and still includes him in the website!

Also, a couple notes on the website:
@kaye: He didn't handcode, he used Microsoft Word 9 (Office 2000?), actually in retrospect, it would be nicer if he would have handcoded, since the code would be much cleaner. The code word generated is a MESS

Also the images would have worked, as long as they were in the 587web_files/ folder, I dunno if first slash would make a diff (Its been a long time since i used HTML straight) but there is nothing major wrong with the code, i half expected him to be linking to C drive
