No Wireless When Install 14.04 on Macbook Pro



So I'm attempting to dual-boot OS X 10.8.5 (native OS) and Ubuntu 14.04.
I installed Ubuntu (hooray!) but upon booting into Ubuntu I discovered I have no network connection from the OS. I'm very new to Linux.




I've noticed some similar posts, however the only "solution" I've seen so far is to screw the wireless connection and buy a USB-ethernet adapter. If I was using this computer at home that'd be fine. But this is in an office and it's WiFi only.



Is there anyway to get the wireless adapter to work?



Mac Book Pro, Retina, 13-inch, Late 2012
CPU 2.5 Ghz Intel Core i5
Memory 8GB
