This Guest of Honor event is the high point of WisCon programming; it's the formal event at which we honor our guests and listen to what they have to say to us. In the past, guests have given us rallying calls to political action, humorous anecdotes, scholarly treatises, exposés, autobiographical histories, earthshaking ideas and passionate and lyrical speeches. Sometimes they have even had far–reaching consequences. For instance, Pat Murphy initiated the Tiptree Award as part of her 1991 GoH speech at WisCon 15.
