Speaker Meeting
Manhattan 7:30PM
The Ides of March finds us hosting Morgan Pehme. In the past, Morgan has spoken to audiences at Fordham, Touro College and NYU and we're thrilled to have him spend an hour with Greater New York Mensa. Focus of the discussion is the current politicial arena and as executive director of New York Civic, he will offer some interesting insights and hopefully answer any questions offered. A past graduate of Dalton, some of you might remember him from the movie Searching for Bobby Fischer.
At: The Alcove on the 8th floor, David Dubinsky Student Center (a.k.a. Building A), Fashion Institute of Technology. The entrance is on W. 27th St., between 7th and 8th Avenues, nearer 8th Avenue. [campus map] [Google map with multi-modal directions]

Greater New York Mensa is the Local Group for Downstate New York. That is, New York City (the boroughs of Manhattan, Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens and Staten Island) and the adjoining New York State counties of Nassau, Suffolk, Westchester, Rockland and Putnam.
Greater New York Mensa (GNYM) is one of the oldest and largest local Mensa groups in the world, and the original home of the American Mensa national office.
What is Mensa?
Mensa is an international society with only one requirement for membership: a score in the top 2 percent on a standardized IQ test. Mensa follows no political agenda and holds no opinions, but rather serves two purposes:
(1) as a social organization, it provides a means of assembly and communication for its members, and
(2) under the auspices of MERF (Mensa Education and Research Foundation), Mensa promotes research and understanding in the area of human intelligence.
