Article here. Possibly one of her grandsons just got #MeToo'ed by some nutcase? Dunno. Anyway, check the news tonight about reports of Hell freezing over. Excerpt:

'Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg — widely recognized as a leftist, feminist icon — shocked her fans this week when she took American colleges and universities to task for failing to follow Constitutional guidelines regarding due process when using Title IX "kangaroo courts" to handle claims of sexual abuse against students.

Speaking to the Atlantic, Ginsberg talked at length about "due process" after being asked about the #MeToo movement, and handling allegations of workplace harassment. She ignored the movement nearly altogether before pivoting into a rant about how America's institutions of higher education are subjecting accused students to a bizarre and potentially unconstitutional process.

"There’s been criticism of some college codes of conduct for not giving the accused person a fair opportunity to be heard, and that’s one of the basic tenets of our system, as you know, everyone deserves a fair hearing," she said.'

Or maybe third wave feminists caring about men.
A big red flag on this one. Why change her position and run the risk of being vilified by the sisterhood.
Is this just an initial step to setting up semi-judicial panels in universities or off shoots of the superior courts, to adjudicate on sexual abuse cases against students? Of course who else would be better qualified to head such a panel than herself and other radfem jurists?
That would be one way to continue the "believe the accuser" movement while avoiding the constitutional and procedural fairness issues.
