The space
In 1915, another school was built in Albany called Public School 14 (Albany Schools). The principal of Philip Schuyler High was Ben Becker. He previously graduated from Philip Schuyler in 1925 and went to the Cortland State Teachers College. He began boxing at this school, and returned to Philip Schuyler as the athletic coach in 1930. He left Philip Schuyler to attend New York University, which he graduated from in 1934. In the 1950s, Becker helped to found the Big Brothers of Albany. He went on to coach boxing, as a part of the Amateur Athletic Union Adirondack District. He coached Muhammed Ali to the Olympics in 1960, perhaps why Ali visited Philip Schuyler in the later years. Becker eventually became the principal of Philip Schuyler, where he used many of his values as a boxer to teach students. The Albany Public Schools website noted, “In Ben Becker’s mind, there were no problem kids. Just kids with problems.” In 1970, he retired. He died in 1987.
