Dear teacher,
Nicole Thompson had been at Columbia University for only a few weeks when she went out drinking with a group of friends downtown last year and became separated from them. She had skipped her medication for bipolar disorder. Now it was 3 a.m. and, crying and in a panic, she called friends; she told them, she said, that she "just wished the traffic would take me out."
Q : I think "when...." modifies not "a few weeks" but "had been". The portion means The days that she went out dringking with friends happened in the early semester of freshmen,doesn't it?
All the best,
