Thinking about joining Mensa? We have information on membership here (which includes testing and submitting prior evidence - be sure to check for the latest Membership Promotions at the bottom of the page!). You can view some of our activites in our photo album. Also, our Loc Sec columns will tell you a bit more about the experience of Mensa in Cincinnati.
CAM Connections is your gateway to the ways in which CAM members interact - at Regional Gatherings, local events and online groups. You can also read about Culture Quest, American Mensa's annual competition based on cutural literacy.
If education is your interest, we have a scholarship contest for college students and information for parents of gifted children. Next year's entry form, as well as announcements for past years' winners, can be found on the Scholarship page.
If the business of running the organization appeals to you, you can learn more in the CAM Business section of this site, which includes information on elections, officers, Ex Comm meeting minutes and the rules that govern us.
The Members Only area of the CAM site is here. You can find the PDF version of the Mencinnatian there as well as a copy of the local membership directory. Use the same logon (either member number or email address) and password that you use to log onto the American Mensa website. Note that the *password* is case sensitive. If you don't have this information, you can go here for help.
The New Member Guide, put together by Tiffany Everett, can be also be found here, using the same login information as above. You can find information about SIGs (Special Interest Groups), the AG (Annual Gathering) and MAs (Mensan Acronyms) so that you, too, can use Mensa Speak. We recommend that you download it to begin the geekification process in earnest.
