Bad location (far from international airport and big cities) and town itself doesn't have much to do. The nightlife is fun, since it's basically a party town/university. I had mostly good professors - some didn't seem to care and/or didn't put in much effort, but at the end of the day, it's your education, not theirs. The campus is pretty but can be very congested (cramped). Library is gorgeous and the food-eating area is pretty good. Police in Johnson City are absolutely awful and have no chill. The nature is really pretty, as you're situated directly in the mountains. Exams aren't too bad, some are even online. The lecture halls can be as big as 200 students and as small as 10 - all depends on the class. Frats and sororities are pretty prominent. Diversity is fair - race and internationally, but the international students tend to clump together and I didn't see many people make the effort to integrate themselves. There are a fair amount of school events (some football games), the parties are fun, and the studying isn't too extreme, although it depends on your major. Keep in mind, some classes don't count attendance at all, so skipping class is fine. Just be wary of doing it too often!
