I am a math major at an R1 uni and a most of the professors and postdocs I have taken classes from or worked with are foreigners who immigrated for or after their phd. A lot are from italy for some reason.
Is this because american unis are better to work at or because america can’t produce enough good math phds locally?

It's because American universities are under pressure to hire fewer White Americans.

White Americans are unlikely to major in math, much less do a PhD.

At my M1 they're all born in America, but the CS department is similar. The US draws a lot of talent in, for better or worse
