I'd say that this page looks par for the course for the professors at my university.
It's worth keeping in mind that many of them first learned HTML in the 80s and 90s and can't be bothered to keep up with design fads on the Internet. When I see a university page that has a "modern" sense of aesthetics, it's almost certainly built by a much younger professor (that also happens to use git and bootstrap and twitter and cell phones).
Edit: On the other hand there are YouTube embeds and the link to photos and videos points to Dropbox instead of an FTP server.

Seems to me like Atkeson chooses to keep up with the trends that actually improve a page, and not the design trends that make it easier to read. This is probably a good resource allocation for a person like a professor.
