If you look at the activity window you'll see it tries to load a swf file (this is Flash BTW) - it doesn't find it - the file is missing, its nothing to do with Safari - try it others browsers and you'll get the same.

Me too, but only using IE. Firefox draws a blank as well.

Yeah, their HTML is bad. Complain to the web master! Otherwise they'll never know and won't fix it.

A whole lot of academic aids are coded for Windows-specific browsers, and almost always for IE. Frankly, it's just about the only safe bet they can make: a college student with a computer probably has Internet Explorer, and since the majority of personal computers are Windows machines, they have a high probability that the (ok I'll say it-frequently brain dead) college student will have a Windows machine running IE.
That's still no excuse for not handling the other possibilities though. As musper69 says, it's stupid to exclude other platforms and computer-savy users.
