We typically have 1-5 independent study students on top of our teaching load. you get nothing for it, except for kudos. during any semester, i will have a couple internship students (internships in the community), independent research (either their own data collection or mining my data), senior honors thesis, etc. students. They look very highly on this sort of thing but we do it on top of our 3 normal courses. i make it very student initiated and typically won't agree to supervise if the student has exhibited lack of motivation in other courses. i meet for one hour a week for 3-4 weeks and then we meet as needed and correspond by email. i read drafts and we discuss research, etc. it's really not a huge burden. it's pretty fun actually, but it can be a lot of work.
