The Gunilla Hastrup Adventure Award was created by family and friends of Gunilla Hastrup, a Caltech Y Board Member who not only loved sharing her Swedish traditions, but also enjoyed travel, exploring, and learning about others. This memorial award provides students the opportunity to explore their family roots or family origins to gain a better understanding of their cultural identity and/or explore and learn about a culture different from their own. This could be another country or a different part of the United States.
