I am a new advisor to one of the NPC sororities at UCI, and although that's not where I attended college, it is my understanding that the campus is on the laid-back side. It's comprised of a lot of commuters, and a friend who did go there said that in general student life is very relaxed. However...
It can only be considered a positive thing to have recs. Think of what you do for a job interview: You put on a suit (I don't care if you're interviewing to be a cashier at McDonalds, a teacher, or the CEO of Ford Motors, you ALWAYS wear a suit to job interviews), learn what you can about the company you're interviewing with, and put your best foot forward. A lot of companies won't ask for letters of recommendation, but they cannot hurt you. It always helps the collegieate members to learn about you before Recruitment, and a rec that isn't one of 1,000 will make you easier to remember.
Asking your favorite teachers for recs is a great idea, you never know who's a member. Get recs if you can, but I get the feeling that it won't be the end of the world if you can't come up with one for UCI.
