You could make every single letter active.

Er.

Perhaps not. ;}

You could wrap up \section in this new command, something like

\makeatletter
\let\re at lsection=\section
\def\realsection#1{\re at lsection{#1}}
\makeatother
\def\section#1{%
    \realsection{#1}%
    \markright{%
        \thesection. \uppercase{#1}%
        \hfill 2AIT314, Stig Brautaset
        \hspace{1in}}}

(written in a tearing hurry, ugly). Now \section has changed.

If you want to do this a lot you might find the preview.dtx macro
package useful: it has macros \pr at advise and \pr at advise@ship which are
sort of space-age versions of this, which ban recursive wrapping and so
forth.
