MILWAUKEE - Liberian president Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf visited the Marquette campus today and she was escorted by Marquette soccer player Michael Greene.

Greene, the only Liberian student on campus, was chosen to be part of the visit due to his relationship to the country. Greene and his family fled from the war-torn nation and he came to Marquette from Brooklyn Park, Minn.
