Well if you are a ghost writer for someone's Twitter account, you continue to use that account to totally rip that person apart.

The idea is to discourage sexual contact, though the social networking language is buried within:  "Teachers also cannot have a non-work-related website that allows exclusive access with a current or former student."

Should teachers and students be "friends" on social media sites?
