Telluride Association is a nonprofit organization that creates educational opportunities focused on critical thinking and democratic community. It offers programs for high school sophomores and juniors, university students, and graduate students, with experiences provided at no charge. Two core initiatives bring together learners from around the world for seminars led by college and university faculty, alongside related educational and social activities. Based in Ithaca, New York, and founded in 1911 by Lucien L. Nunn, the association funds residential houses at the University of Michigan and Cornell University that provide room and board scholarships for undergraduate and graduate students. Its notable alumni include Steven Weinberg and Paul Wolfowitz, and the organization has hosted faculty guests such as Michel Foucault and Richard Feynman.
