You'll be using the library catalog to locate this article. Any time you have a citation for an article, this is the process you'd use to find the full text:

- Go to the library homepage (http://library.uncw.edu/)
- Click on "Search Catalog"
- Click on the "Journal Title" tab
- Type in the name of the publication: Chronicle of Higher Education
- We'll talk about how to interpret the catalog record in more depth later in the semester
- For now, click on the link for "Academic Search Premiere"
- Click on "Search within this publication"
- In the second search box, type in "Infodiet" (make sure to leave "Chronicle of Higher Education" in the top box)
- It should be the second result you retrieve
