A Lifetime of Curiosity: Gus Michael Vratsinas
BSCE 1967, MSCE 1968
When Gus Vratsinas was 6, growing up in
Little Rock across the street from
where the University of Arkansas for
Medical Sciences was being built, he
became fascinated with the workers
and the process of construction.
Particularly, he was curious about
that fellow peering through the
eyepiece of an instrument mounted on
a tripod.

Stephanie McHenry '844
Banking with a Conscience
by Rebekah Rombom '08
Like many economics majors who graduate
from Dartmouth, Stephanie McHenry ’84
went into banking. But the work that
the Arkansas native does at ShoreBank in
Cleveland is not just the work of a
traditional commercial bank.
ShoreBank Cleveland operates with the
three-pronged goal of aiding in
community development, maintaining
environmental responsibility and making
a profit. Though there are now several
ShoreBanks throughout the country and
the corporation works with clients
worldwide, for McHenry, the President of
ShoreBank Cleveland, these goals mean
providing support and lending to
residents of Cleveland proper,
particularly in areas in the upper east
side of the city that have high poverty
rates and high percentages of minority
inhabitants.
