I think recommendations are a good idea. I mean, what can it hurt to have them? I am thinking about the part you said with being 'phony'. Honestly, there is a chance that it could come back to bite you. Girls could have noticed the phony behavior and labeled you as 'that girl'. I think that you should explain your situation to someone who could write a rec for you.
That is only one part. The other is the grades. My school is very similar to yours in terms of enrollment and number of greek orgs. I know that a GPA of 2.6 could only make you eligible for only some of the orgs. Maybe that is no big deal. There could be a couple of sororities that see your grades as sufficient and really like you. My point is that you should go through recruitment. No one can stop you from doing that. But you should definitely be realistic about what could happen in the end.
I can give you more advice about this. I have been in pretty much the same shoes as you, so I definitely know how you feel. Good luck!!!
