Does anyone's a/c compressor clutch make noises when it kicks on? Mine started this a few months ago. It's not real loud, just like little shakey squeaks.

I've never heard one do that. a 'tick-whirrrrr' as it cycles on and off is pretty normal, but a chattery squeak? Verify the belts are good and if they check out, drive it until the AC clutch fails and replace it.
Unfortunately that's a section I haven't completed in our web CAPS.

Yeah, belts check out fine. The sound only happens after you hear the clutch click like you mentioned and goes away after it clicks back off. Everything works fine, just a little annoying and embarrasing when sitting in line to pick up my daughter from school.

Possibly your a/c clutch reaching its failure point or the bearing assembly.

Id say that your compressor bearings are going bad just like other have said. If you look around dsmtuners.com plp are always selling the a/c's for pretty cheap or a new one is not bad I got mine for 200$ reman from autozone.
Finish? What is this "finish" you speak of sir? Dsm's are never complete just temporarily put together.
97 eclipse gone but never forgotten Ill miss you money pit.

+1 My Ac is making a sound all the time and just saving the cash until I can replace it.
