American Mensa, Ltd.

I wasn’t supposed to yank this wailing woman out of a La-Z-Boy, wasn’t supposed to get clubbed in the head with a bottle of Beefeater by an uncle who thought I didn’t know enough to care. I wasn’t supposed to celebrate my 40^th birthday in Buffalo General’s room 720.

From Modafinil and similar nootropics to gene editing and brain-computer interfaces — will our seemingly endless quest for neuroenhancement forever end in "Flowers for Algernon"?

If you feel like the pace of life is speeding up, that news, information and new technologies are moving faster and faster, you’re not alone. A new global survey on financial, political and social issues reveals future-shaping divides.

Nearly 1,500 Mensans celebrated the week with late nights and more than 300 lectures and programs on subjects as varied as the attendees themselves, many basking in the sunshine of the Hollywood, Fla., beach.

Access and distribution to month-end reports will now be based on pertinent leadership positions, streamlining changeover periods for local groups and helping staff be more responsive to requests for assistance.

300 Mensans persevered through 42 hours of nonstop tabletop action, winnowing 74 new-to-market games to just these five — our 2017 Mensa Select winners.

With pride, we celebrate those local groups and individuals within our ranks that continue to go above and beyond to make American Mensa the great organization that it is.
