...but I would like the "News and Events" div to grow without overlapping the footer...

the problem is that particular div is position:absolute, because I can't figure a good way of setting up this layout without it.


Don't use absolute positioning for any of those blocks. Instead, use a two-column float layout. Leave your quickLinks div floated left, but then add a new div after it that wraps around all the stuff in the right column. You can either leave this div static or float it left as well. Then, place another div in the right column to hold the four smaller boxes. Then, your News and Events box will just come in the flow directly after the four box wrapper. As long as you use a good float clearing/containment method, you will no longer have a footer overlap problem.
