    Subtract Fear, Multiply Confidence will help students deal with the anxiety of math.
   The workshop is Tuesday, Sept. 30, at 12:45 p.m. in NTAB 249, presented by the NE counseling center.
   Students will learn how to tackle math head on by proven techniques and build confidence in their abilities. Students can feel the sense of accomplishment of overcoming one the most difficult subjects, Richard Vela counselor and workshop leader, said.
   "I am going to help push study habits and will stress having a positive attitude," he said.
   Students are also going to talk about having confidence and will learn about the "B rule and how it works, free tutoring and the math lab.
   This workshop is interactive, so Vela wants to hear about experiences students have had to try to help them succeed in math.
