You can grant them read and write access even if they're not the owner. Not being the owner would prevent them from chmod-ing it.
Of course, if they have write access, they never needed chmod, because
they can write to it. If they have access to a file and have shell access, they have access to a file and have shell access. This is why giving 9 people the same shell account is a bad idea...

I think script in bash_profile might work.
Nothing would stop them from killing
script and falsifying its results. If they have access to their files and processes, they have access to their files and processes. This is why giving 9 people the same shell account is a bad idea...
Do they truly
need shell access to this account? Might they just need the ability to do
a few very specific things as this user? You could limit them with
sudo. Only allow a few specific users to run your very own wrapper script under this user, a wrapper script which records and formats their input in whatever way you like. This would let you control which users get to run it, too, without having to give them all the same password. You'd be able to track which users were running it when, too. You may even be able to do it seamlessly with an alias.
