Delaware Valley Mensa is a member-run community with around 1,000 active members. DVM is part of Region 2 (The Middle Atlantic Region) of American Mensa.
Mensa is an international society whose only qualification for membership is a score in the top 2 percent of the general population on a standardized intelligence test. The word mensa means “table” in Latin; similarly, mens means “mind” and mensis means “month.” The name “Mensa” is reminiscent of “mind, table, month,” which suggests a monthly meeting of great minds around a table.
