Parsing Text with jQuery

Question

I'm attempting to parse a text string with jQuery and to make a variable out of it. The string is below: ``` Publications Deadlines: armadllo ``` I'm trying to just get everything past "Publications Deadlines: ", so it includes whatever the name is, regardless of how long or how many words it is. I'm getting the text via a the jQuery .text() function like so: ``` $('.label_im_getting').text() ``` I feel like this may be a simple solution that I just can't put together. Traditional JS is fine as well if it's more efficient than JQ!
