#1 When doing work on SBIR/STTR military grant projects I was shocked to see professors at US universities who were citizens of the PRC working in the projects. {I didn't start working with universities until Bush II was in office so I have no idea when it began to be common.}

#2 IMHO, When Reagan began the Starwars program engineers left Lawrence Livermore, JPL, EG&G, etc. for Huntsville AL. The Aerospace industry then struggled to find 'clearable' talent, which drew bodies from academia and started the wage wars. Then highly educated and motivated Chinese engineers flowed into the resulting University vacumn.

#3 ^^^^^
Sadly, multi-generational cultural affinity is a particular consideration, even after a couple of generations in my experience.

A study of SJS (sudden Jihadi Syndrom) found higher propensity to react of those cross cultural individuals defined as ".(be)-tweens", who didn't feel significant levels of integration into American culture vs. their ethnic origins.

In parallel, I suspect it is, in part, a particular outcome of the academic, liberal, governmental attitude of America as a salad bowl, not a melting pot and "Diversity is Our Strength" memes. When we emphasize our differences, not a common embrace of our national ethos, we don't meld as well.
