Comment:
Lectures are PowerPoint based. She's very clear when conveying info, and her exams only contain info she talked about in class. They are detailed though, so you definitely need to study. She requires a couple annoying group projects throughout the year, but overall she's a good choice for a professor.

Loved her! She is such a great professor! Encourages you to learn and study, but worth it! Studying often and understanding the material is essential to passing. She moves quickly but is willing to slow down and clarify anything. Great professor and loved class with her

Comment:
She assigns a lots group projects that are worth only 3 points and expects you to meet with your group in person. She isn't that willing to help you and will give you responses along the lines of "reread the syllabustextbook." She answers lots of questions in class, though. Not many tests, so they all matter. Her lectures do teach the material.

Comment:
Multiple pop-quizzes per week usually. Test and quiz questions are unclear and difficult. Asked multiple times for help and usually got the answers "read the syllabus" and "go to review sessions". Declined request for meeting during office hours. Rude in emails and personally though no reason was given-seemed to treat more politely when challenged.

Dr. Etheridge is an awesome professor. I took her capstone class (Comparative Animal Physiology) and I don't think I've loved another class more. While the material was complex and confusing, Etheridge would always take the time to explain it to you more if you were confused. She wants her students to do well and that really shows in her teaching!

She is a very nice person. While i did well on her tests, the final was much harder. She is definitely a great professor, but you will not be babied in her class. remember that as nice as she may seem, she is a professor and you may be shocked by the level of work she expects.

Really great and really funny. She makes everything easy to understand. She gives you exactly what pages to look at in the book for clarification on lecture topics.

I loved Kay. She team taught this course with Professor Else in Art History. Kay was an awesome lecturer and was hilarious. She's a pretty fair grader and is clear in what she wants.

If you enjoy reading powerpoint slides and memorizing pointless information, you'll love Etheridge. Otherwise, she is not a good professor. I hope I don't have her again.

Told our class she's never on campus past three because she has to get home to her dog. When students went to her for help she announced that we were not to come to see her unless we saw the TA first. I chose Gburg so I wouldn't have TA's.

Great teacher and wonderful help on extra work and questions. I wanted to take more of her classes but didn't have time. Labs and lecture were always well organized and she is demanding but fair.
