I'm still waiting on the results of my scholarship application. According to the much-lauded "pink memo", we should be hearing word on the results "by early july".
Now the grammar stickler in me feels compelled to point out that "by" implies before.... such that even if they did indicate as period of time rather than a set point, the results should be available before early july, clearly not the case. The kid in me likes the sweet frosting.
