Ilford Pan 400 if you want a really grainy look. Pushes well to +1. I'm tempted to push it +2 or even +3, develop in Rodinal 1+20 at 25 Celsius, and see the grain then. It's gritty even when shooting nominally and developing 1+100 at 20 C.
Fomapan 200 is an ok all-purpose film, high latitude and tolerance. Good results when shooting at -1 and developing nominally. Don't try to push it though, it will fail miserably.
Kodak Academy 200 I really liked for some reason, despite everyone saying the worst things about it. I can't say much though, I only had one roll of it, and sadly it's not available anymore.
They're all cheapo films, so you'll like them if you're in a poor student mode. Since I'm constantly in poor student mode, I can't recommend any any higher-end films.
By developing prints, do you also mean developing films? Anyway, developing B&W films is pretty much child's play. Printing B&W itself is a bit more messing around, but developing the prints is just moving them between trays.
