Still Brothers Allen and Michael Become CPAs

Allen Still and Michael Still are newly qualified Certified Public Accountants, both having recently completed their regulatory qualifying exams.

Tthat means that they have reached a coveted, stratospheric threshhold in their professions, having a status vaguely equivalent to those who hold medical degrees, Ph.Ds or say, a juris doctorate. In other words, they're not just working the counter at the H&R Block; they have the world by the tail, and yes, Uncle Bill Adams, they're considerably beyond being just a couple of guys.

The two Purdue graduates -- both of whom have hung out shingles in Indianapolis -- are the sons of Kevin and Anne Still of Danville, IN, Anne being the daughter of Maxine (Fieg) and Dr. Robert Whiteside of Sioux City, IA.

Allen, 26, is employed by Cliffton Gunderson, and Michael, 24, toils for Ernst & Young.
