He/She is one person and they is plural. It can be awkward sometimes if you have to say 'A student can carry a book if he wants,' when most people tend to put they instead of he because saying he eliminates girls, and 'he or she' is wordy. But the subject is 'a student,' and therefore, 'he' must be used rather than 'they.'
