Center for Talented Youth
In 1972, Dr.
Julian Stanley, a psychology professor
at The Johns Hopkins University,
introduced the first

Since 1979, CTY has expanded to offer a
wide range of academic opportunities and
to conduct research, disseminate
information, consult with educational
organizations, advocate public policy
initiatives, and offer diagnostic and
