Abstract: By using the logistic regression analysis of the random samples of student cadres and ordinary students in Tianjin Normal University, the paper mainly researches the influence of parents' political capital on their offspring as cadres in universities. By quantifying political capital as party membership and cadre level, the study found:the administrative ranks of fathers and offsprings as student cadres are significantly associated. The odds ratio of fathers who have administrative level and their offsprings who act as student cadres is 7.180 times that of those whose fathers have no administrative levels. It shows that the higher a father's administrative rank, the greater the probability of his offspring as student cadres.

Key words: parent's political capital, class solidification, Logistic regression analysis, student cadres
