WebAdvisor, according to Ellucian,
[P]resents real-time information such as community news, services, e-commerce capabilities, and e-learning offerings—all from one central and secure location.
It is terrible. The less anyone has to interact with it, the better. To that end, WebAdpyser is a class/script that can currently scrape section information from WebAdvisor instances, and has a unix-like interface.
By default, it uses OASIS, but other sites that work might be added via wa.ini.
A full listing of options can be found with the --help flag, but here are some (trimmed) examples:

MAT-241-001 Proof and Logic P. Tiu
This course serves as a general introduction to advanced mathematics.
As such, it will consider various methods of proof communicated
through good mathematical communication (both written and oral).
Topics are drawn from logic, set theory, functions, relations,
combinatorics, graph theory, and Boolean algebra. Offered every
fall semester. Prerequisite: MAT 132 with a grade of "C-" or higher.
$ ./wa.py MAT-241 -sftmc # Where does it meet? Is it full?
