I am trying to find a way to search for a student who maybe posting some harassing content on twitter to our faculty. I figure if they are using our district owned devices then I should be able to run a script to search for them. Anyone done something similar? I figure if I run a search of web cache using the twitter username, maybe?
Thanks for any help anyone can provide,

You'll need to write something that searches for a string inside the user's cookies.
For Chrome Cookies are inside a SQLite Database at ~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default/Cookies
and the bit you need is like this
"u=173032736"
Use this web-site to find what the ID of the username is

So you'll need to write something that dumps the Twitter cookies from the SQLite DB, searches for their userID...etc
