MENSA Vranje

On the initiative of Nebojša Novković, the first Mensa member from Vranje, the first testing in Vranje took place in April 2006, at the Teacher’s Faculty. With additional 12 members selected on that testing and the great support of the local authorities and media, the local Mensa group in Vranje was founded in May 2006. As soon as it was founded, the local Mensa group became very active and took part in different events within the local society. After the second testing in May 2007, the number of members raised to 22.
