The surgical clerkship is a pivotal part of medical education, influencing students’ views on surgery. A program at one institution enlisted research residents as junior clerkship coordinators and educators. Student feedback before and after implementing this program showed no change in overall course perception. However, students noted improved clarity in written clerkship materials and found the feedback more valuable. Qualitative analysis confirmed an overall positive shift in students’ perception of the clerkship, highlighting the benefits of this scholar program in enhancing certain aspects of the medical school clerkship experience.
