Welcome to Nebraska Western Iowa Mensa (NWIM).  Please take a look around our site and get to know us.

NWIM's Purpose

Mensa has three stated purposes:

  1. To identify and foster human intelligence for the benefit of humanity.
  2. To encourage research in the nature, characteristics and uses of intelligence.
  3. To promote stimulating intellectual and social opportunities for its members.

NWIM's Profile

As an organization, NWIM provides intelligent individuals, an opportunity to meet other smart people on the local level.  Mensans interact at entertaining events and exchange ideas through a variety of publications.  Mensa members also work to help others in their communities by providing scholarships and volunteering for community-oriented activities.

Mensa "provides a forum for intellectual exchange among members. Its activities include the exchange of ideas by lectures, discussions, journals, special-interest groups, and local, regional, national, and international gatherings; the investigations of members' opinions and attitudes; and assistance to researchers, inside and outside Mensa, in projects dealing with intelligence or Mensa." [Mensa Constitution]

Mensa is an international society that has one - and only one - qualification for membership: a score in the top 2% of the population on a standardized intelligence test.

NWIM has 189 members as of January 2007.
