My inlaws are in this category. They were farmers w/ HS diplomas but encouraged all 5 of their kids to affiliate w/ a GLO so they would have a support system, stay in school, get their degrees and be successful.
3 out of 5 joined GLOs. All 3 of them finished their degrees and went on to have very successful careers.
The other 2 did not affiliate - and neither of them finished school and their careers have been, shall we say, "bumpy".
Not exactly a scientifically-controlled study, but it's all the evidence my FIL/MIL need. This is why they encouraged their grandchildren to go Greek and they were my biggest support (other than Mr. A) in my AI pursuit.
