What happens at Mensa meetings? Back in ‘88 I took some tests and the organization said they’d help me process the Mensa paperwork because I was qualified. I never followed through. Is anything accomplished? Is there structure to the meetings? Are charity efforts organized? I visualized people sitting in a circle expounding and brainstorming, but had no basis for my thoughts.
At the local level, Mensa is primarily a social outlet. Here in Colorado Springs we have monthly meetings, sometimes with a guest speaker, games nights (poker is a favorite), dinners together, and other activities as they occur to members. I can honestly say I haven’t met a finer group of people. At the national level, Mensa hosts colloquiums, awards scholarships, and participates in various studies of intelligence.
