validator passed a page with missing tags

Hello,

I teach web development at a college. A student submitted the page shown at the URL given below. It is missing a closing <head> tag and both <body> tags. Can you explain why the Validator gave it a perfect pass? Attached is a screenshot of the results from the Validator.

Thank you,
Liz
